Capítulo 120: The Rebirth of the Legend (V)
I threw my hands up guilty but smugly smiled at him, knowing that full well that I was glad that I wasn't in his shoes right now. "So, you're the mother of the future Hero." I coughed back a snicker.
"Yes! And I can prove it to you." Ginger finally let go and walked up towards the Legendary Claw Pulse. She put her hands on top gauntlets. With all her strength, the gauntlet budget and lifted only an inch off the ground, before she collapsed, completely winded. "Wee~" She brushed back her hand on her forehead, wiping away the sweat.
"My lady!" Every Beast-kin was shocked when they saw what just transpired before them.
A large smile appeared on the lips of Ginger. "See, I told you I can prove myself, and my future husband can too."
I glanced towards Don, he shook his head furiously, telling me not to call him forward. For some reason, I felt impish and wanted to see if what Ginger said was true.
"Preposterous. A human can't lift up the Legendary Claw Pulse." The deer man arrogantly snorted at Don. "He's not worth the trouble nor the time for this."
"He's not just a human! He's my husband!" Ginger was getting angry at her followers.
I smirked towards Don. "It doesn't hurt to try right, Don?"
"I hate you, Berry," Don mumbled under his breath, and I caught his words.
"Go on." I shooed him forward.
Don sighed and shuffled his way towards the Legendary weapon. He gave a displeasure look and reached down onto Pulse, but at that moment, something unexpected happened before everyone's eyes. All of a sudden, Pulse melted into liquid form and split itself into two. Half of it wrapped itself around Don's right hand, becoming a part of him. While the other half crawled over towards Ginger and slinked around her left arm.
Everyone was startled at what just had transpired. What Ginger said came true. Even I, who was just joking around, was speechless. Honestly, I pray for his soul for the days to come.
"It's not possible." The words of the deer man cut through the silence, making everyone wake up in complete disbelief. "How is it that a non-beastkin holds the weapon…?"
"I can explain it." Ginger sheepishly replied. Everyone turned their gaze towards her, waiting for what she had to say. "We slept together and became husband and wife."
"What?!" I shrieked. Holy crap! Did he go somewhere really dark and dangerous?!
"We didn't do anything like that, Berry! For crying out loud! She's sixteen!"
"That's even worse!" A freakin legal loli! I never thought I would see one in real life, but here she is.
"And you! Stop making it sound so wrong!" Don roared. His face was getting bright red from the stare that everyone was giving.
"Teehee, but I did sneak into your bed and slept next to you."
"!"
You are done for my friend. I gave him the most pitiful gaze I could muster. Yep, you've been tricked.
"I placed my ring onto your finger and vice versa." Ginger sheepishly grinned. "That makes us husband and wife, allowing you to hold half the power of the Legendary Claw Pulse until our child is born."
Don turned completely pale. I swear, I thought I saw his soul fly away from his body.
"Well then," I coughed. "Congratulations, Don. You are officially married. I think. So with that being said, I'll send you guys a wedding gift later. With that, let us go get ready to celebrate for our victory that we all got ready to prepare."
Just as quickly as everyone heard the word to celebrate, they all cheered in excitement. They all started to stream out of the hall, and the only one left was Phil and Don, who gently patted Don's back, while Ginger gazed down at him worriedly. I looked at the depressed figure of Don and sighed. He is now a part hero, or should I say the father of the future Hero? I don't know, but the future is becoming stranger as I think about it.

In an underground cave's darkness, an ugly female orc with protruding eyes breathed heavily in a sharp breath. Her large stomach that was filled with life moved around her belly strangely.
"Hah. Hah. Hah." A female orc groans in pain. She was in labor since yesterday and had fallen into a semi-unconscious state. Every time the baby moved, she cried out in horrible moans of pain. Her vision became cloudy, even though in the darkness Orcs are known for being able to see in the darkness, it was difficult to see clearly around her.
She felt a powerful but strange energy coming towards her slowly. "Who's there…" With a gasp, she tried to sound harsh, but her sharp pain struck her body. "Show yourself."
"So, my body is here." A male's voice spoke with a glee.
The Orc tried her best to clear her sight, but all she could see was a darker shadow than black itself. "W-who?"
"Ah-rah? You're barely clinging alive." The voice frowned at the mother orc that was suffering from the pain. "Mother of my body. Would you make a deal with me?"
"What...huff..would that be?"
"I can save your child's body in exchange for allowing my soul to reside in it. You see, you and your child will die here today in the next couple of hours."
"Is that ...huff...true?"
"You should know better than I that your body can only hold on for much longer. The baby in your stomach will die the moment you breathe your last breath."
"Then save him!" She demanded towards the shadow, knowing full well that whatever it was before her was not a benevolent being. All she cared about was that her child survived.
The shadow chuckled. "Oh, mother of my body, I'll grant you your wish." The shadow's hand dug into her stomach, causing her to scream endlessly in pain. A powerful surge of dark energy invaded into her stomach, and the shadow disappeared slowly.
Hours went by, and the pain continued to persist until finally, the baby was pushed out with every ounce of breath that she could muster.
"Sleep mother and let your son deal vengeance upon your kind. For the Titan has come back for revenge, and this time I am not leaving this world." The shadow's voice whispered in her ears. "For I am Rei, the Lightning Titan."
The female Orc could not utter a single word. All she felt before dying was joy, happiness, love, fear, and sadness for her child that were born into this wretched world.
A sharp cry escapes the baby's mouth, howling its first breath of life. On that day, all the Orc tribes woke up in horrible fear, for they had felt their doom encroaching upon them. They knew that something sinister and evil had awakened, even the shrine inside their shaman tent broke into a million pieces.
An elderly Orc Shaman with a long beard and a hunched back woke up at the start. His eyes became wide when he saw the broken pieces of the crystal shrine. His old creaky bones were sprung forward towards the shrine in desperation, and he picked up the crystals in his hand. Sniffing the content with his nose, he closed his eyes partially. His pupils rolled backward, showing white.
Not a moment passed when he blinked back awake with horror on his face. "It can't be." He stuttered, getting up on his old legs, stumbling forward in partial hysteria. "This is not possible!"
The Orc Shaman accidentally pushed a vase off the cabinet, causing it to fall down and crash. He stumbled out, yelling at the top of his lungs. "Quickly! Get the Head Chieftain now!"
Suddenly, the Orc village was thrown into a frenzy, while Orc's ran back and forth. A huge Orc with bulging muscles came running over towards the Orc Shaman with worry creased on his face.
"What's wrong, elder? Why have you caused such a commotion?"
"We have a serious problem. The Titan's shrine has broken." Even though the Orc Shaman's words were not loud, everyone around him heard every word that came out of his mouth. They froze in disbelief at what they just heard.
"That's not possible. This is the thousand-year reign of the Black Gryphon. How can the Titan be born today? Are you sure you're not going senile?"
With a sharp tap of his hand, the Orc Shaman punched the Chieftain in the face. "Do not discredit the Titan Crystal. For thousands of generations, the Titan's crystal has always shown us the Titan's coming, but today something dark has set off this cycle. We must quickly send our people to search for the Legendary Gauntlet Asphalt!"
"Are you sure you're an elder?" The Chieftain held in his breath as he rubbed his cheeks where the Orc Shaman had him.
"You fool, for once, listen to what I have to say. This is no hocus pocus joke that I'm spouting right now. If we don't move our species will become extinct!"
"I understand." The Chieftain nodded. "Quickly send our fastest runners to the other village and tell them that the Titan has been resurrected!"
"Yes!" The Orc cried out in unison.
The Orc shaman rubbed his chin, worriedly looking around towards his people. He knew that this was only just the prelude to the horrors that were to come, and he feared for what could possibly happen in the future.
